After our time in Sunnyside was completed, we continued southwest along west Greenpoint Avenue, across the Newtown Creek into Brooklyn and hit three spots in Greenpoint and East Williamsburg.

Pencil Factory, located at 142 Franklin Street.  Solid spot, part of the gentrification of the northern section of Greenpoint.  12 mostly-quality tap beers offered.  Worth a visit the next time you’re nearby.

After Greenpoint, we moved over the East Williamsburg to visit two recently opened establishments, The Tradesman and Post No Bills, both located within steps of the Montrose Avenue L-train stop.

The Tradesman, a fairly-recently opened spot located at 222 Bushwick Avenue.  Chill vibe and 12 quality tap beers.  Sizeable outdoor space in the back.

Post No Bills, located at 253 Bushwick Avenue.  This bar was not on our radar at all.  We happened to notice it when we first cam out of the L-train enroute to The Tradesman.  Post No Bills is long and narrow, with a small seating area in back.  Only two tap beers here, so we enjoyed part of the 18 bottled/canned beer selection.
